Water…… As far as you can see!😅
The Mrs was checking the river levels on line………………
“ Silvertop the river rose almost ten feet overnight, and one foot since this morning!”😳
That’s not good…………..😮
Liz wanted to stop by our Local Coin shop in town………. More on that on tomorrow’s post!😇
Silvertop wanted to check out the flood waters at the riverside park he had just visited a couple of days ago.
Silvertop is a bit “Adventurous” to say the least! So after Liz parked her car, I planned on hiking the gravel foot path alongside the river, and snap a few photos of the rising waters!😇
The Mrs and I came to a dead stop!😳
“ Honey, did you see that log that just flowed by! The river is over its banks, and the trail is cut off into sections that are under water!”😮
The fifth photo is the Nooksack river, the water was just a couple of feet below the bridge deck! The next photo is what everyone calls “ Lake Lynden “ this large expanse of flat cornfield turns into a lake as far as you can see!
Today, the river looked like it jumped the levy/dyke, and this became an extension of the river!
When they say “use this trail at your own risk” they aren’t kidding!
Liz and Silvertop jumped a section of flooded hiking trail and continued down the trail………….
Water at this point was on both sides of us.
It wasn’t rising quickly but………
I started to look around, and “IF” the water started rising fast, both of us would be walking through frigid water to make it to our car!
“ Time to go Liz!”😮
I actually was surprised the the city hadn’t closed this park, fast moving flood waters are nothing to mess around with!😇
Check out @elizabethbit post for more photos!🥰
The latest weather forecast isn’t calling for rain tomorrow……………
This time we hope his forecast is correct!😀
Till tomorrow Silvertop Mike 😀

The river is amazingly massive and powerful! I've not been this close to a river when it's flooding and I must say it's humbling. We are so insignificant next to this mighty and powerful river that's out of control! I can just begin to understand the panic of the people during the 2021 catastrophic flood.
It seems a disaster has been averted for now........the season is however still young.......
😳😳😳
Stay safe Elizabeth. Do not go out if you do not need to, I hope the water will go down soon.
Thank you @katerinaramm! It has receded and I think all is well for now. Flood season for this river is now through March/April. It all depends on the weather.
Take care and have a lovely day!🤗💜 !LADY

Thank you!😀
We are fortunate to live in the foothills, but Liz works down in town………
For the moment the river level is dropping!🤗
Smart move to leave while the getting was good! Floods can surprise you by how fast things can change. Wow, so much water!

Very true, my friend! 😳
We had creeks in Cincinnati that in a matter of minutes after a thunderstorm, a torrent of rain came down and carried a few cars away of weekend partiers !😬

I guess we can at least run to the hills with flooding, wildfires, burn everywhere!🙄
Yeah that's true!
Enjoy a nice walk while you can 😄.
Thank you, it is winter the rainy season Lol!😇
Have a great day my friend!🤗
Keep safe. Is the erosion not a problem?

Thank you my friend we will stay safe!😇
Yes, the erosion is a terrible problem!a
No one is allowed to dredge the river at this time it’s become a political battle!🙄
Whoa didn't imagine it could get as bad as that when it gets flooded there. Hope you and the Mrs are safe and dry. Thank you for sharing this. I hope the flood water subsides right away. Keep safe!

Thank you, for now, the river is going down, that’s a good thing! We are still early in the winter season. Hopefully we won’t see anymore flooding!😇
Maybe build an ark, just in case? Happy Friday, @silvertop! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

When the river rises it's scary
Thankfully, they are starting to go down…… for now……..
this is only the beginning of the winter rains🙄
Does it happen this time of year regularly? What's the cause of this flood? Rain?
Stay safe there :)

In the Pacific Northwest, the weather changes very quickly! Either we could get blizzard snowfall, cold, dry weather, or torrential rains, we never know what’s coming next……🙄
Hmm. That uncertainty is not comforting at all!
Thanks for the explanation.

Hopefully we won’t get any severe weather Lol!😇

Well, it seems like y'all got a little bit of rain, huh? Wowsers, I haven't seen flooded areas and overflowing rivers like that since I lived in New Jersey many years ago! I hope that you get a little sun to dry things out a bit! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
Thank you, my friend, I hope so too!😀
Once again, I am very glad to live up in the mountains away from the valley !😇😀
You're always very welcome, @silvertop, absolutely! Haha...yes, I very much understand that! Here's some sun to help out! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
